Save Money with Zenni Optical

I just can't help myself.  Every time somebody talks about needing prescription glasses, I have to tell them about Zenni Optical.  Have to.  Where else can you get glasses starting at just $6.95?  And that's not just the frames - that's the lenses too - even the thin and light 1.57 index lenses, which usually cost a lot more anywhere else.  Believe me, I know, that's where they usually get me!  Also included: anti-scratch coating, UV protection, protective case, and cleaning cloth.  Anti-glare or sunglass tint are only an additional $4.95 each.  Seriously, it's a great deal.

I had been hearing about them for a while, and we finally ordered some glasses from Zenni Optical last summer.  Since shipping is $4.95 no matter how many pair you order, I ordered 2 pair for me, 1 for my husband, 1 for my son, and 1 for my friend - and we all love them!  They are perfect.  And did I mention that you can save money on prescription glasses by ordering from Zenni Optical?  A lot of money.  The best deal I've seen anywhere else is Walmart's $29 glasses for kids 18 and under - and they're only that cheap if you can find a pair of $9 frames you like.  Anti-glare is an additional $20, and the costs add up.  And if you're over 18, you can't get that deal.

I've been wearing glasses since sometime in grade school.  I didn't always like my glasses and used to carry them around, only slipping them on when I needed to see the blackboard and then taking them off again as soon as possible.  We couldn't afford to just go out and get me a new pair whenever I might have liked.  If only we'd had something like Zenni Optical!  Kids can have cute glasses for school - even 2 or 3 pair, whether for style or as a back-up in case a pair breaks - without ruining the budget.  And so can I!  You'll notice that I ordered 2 pair when we ordered our Zenni Optical glasses.  This time I need to order some bifocals or progressive lenses which are going to cost me a bit more, but still way cheaper than I can get them anywhere else.  Now, if I can just find some frames I like...
